[BUG/ISSUE] There doesn't seem to be a way to turn on traditional debug printing #43

Closed TerribleNews closed 4 years ago

TerribleNews commented 4 years ago

The GCHP wiki says "Change "ND70" in input.geos from 0 to 1 to turn on extra GEOS-Chem print statements in the main log file. " but I tried adding a Diagnostics menu to my input.geos and it just gets ignored. Is there a way to get the LPRT flag set to true without recompiling?

I think the issue is that the ND70 switch is only activated when BPCH_DIAG=y, which is obviously not the case for GCHP.

What you could do for now is to manually set Input_Opt%ND70 =1 in routine Set_Input_Opt_Mod and that will force debug printout. Caution! There might be a few places in the code where print statements are not trapped by "am_I_Root". We are fixing those in 12.6.0.

We are currently taking out the bpch code from 12.7.0 (at least most of it) so this should be less of an issue going forward.

This has been added as a feature request on the GCC repository. See https://github.com/geoschem/geos-chem/issues/73.

This issue will be corrected in GEOS-Chem 12.7.0. We have moved the debug printout switch to the SIMUATION MENU, which is always read. See https://github.com/geoschem/geos-chem-unittest/commit/7a1772223c17b506a9f2bc14a29a3e2cd599c415. We will make the same update in the GCHP repo as well.

This update is in 12.7.0.
